“You know, we are a family, [so] when something’s going on with one of us, we all sort of stick together and circle around each other and try to be there and lift each other up,” she said at Us Weekly’s Reality Stars of the Year event in Los Angeles.

“So that’s what I’ve been trying to do,” she shared, noting how sister Kathy Hilton has been a huge help.

Though many average families are able to go through these struggles behind closed doors, Kyle explained that is not the case for her brood.

“Of course, you never want to show the most difficult parts of your life, but I don’t have that luxury,” she stated, adding that “cameras have been rolling” throughout the hard experience.

"The family is very private about details, but from the little they’ve shared, it’s clear they’ve reached another breaking point with her," they added. “This has happened before.”

Kim, who had been sober for years before her relapse, has battled with alcohol addiction for a long time.

“It particularly weighs heavily on Kyle, who has always been the worrier of the family,” the source said. “She doesn’t know whether she’s helping or enabling Kim.”

Page Six spoke to Kyle.
